Bath re-enamelling at your home in Chudleigh Knighton
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Chudleigh Knighton?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Common questions in Chudleigh Knighton
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you cover Chudleigh Knighton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Chudleigh Knighton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
